Addiction, relapse, and recovery are not events; they are processes. Throughout addiction treatment, 10 Acre Ranch challenges clients to focus on recovery assignments that help them better understand themselves, heal both mind and body, learn to manage stress, and return to a productive lifestyle.

10 Acre Ranch Addiction Recovery Homework

Throughout the week, residents have an opportunity for reflection and quiet time. During that time, our addiction specialists and therapists ask them to analyze:

Acting-out Behaviors. Parents, children, and other loved ones suffer when substance abusers act out. Clients are asked to reflect on when and why they adopt these behaviors.

Steps 1, 2, and 3 of the 12-step program. During these first three steps, participants admit their powerlessness over alcohol, learn to believe in a power greater than themselves, and make a decision to change behaviors and rely on God.

Anger As A Drug. When alcohol and drugs are no longer available, aggression may become a drug of choice. Anger management is key to addiction recovery.

Importance Of Self-Care. It is not self-centered to take time for relaxation, meditation, and fun. Instead, physical and emotional self-care is critical to every phase of the treatment process.

Communication Skills. Family drama, damaged relationships, and loneliness often lead addicts to live in isolation and frustration. 10 Acre Ranch teaches residents to examine their interpersonal skills and re-learn healthy communication habits.

Relapse Prevention. Addicts must think about relapse prevention planning from day one of rehab. Identifying triggers and learning to manage stress in healthy ways is integral to maintaining long-term sobriety.

Shame & Guilt. Chemically dependent people are often ashamed of their addiction and their flaws. During this recovery assignment, residents learn to release their shame, reconnect with others, and experience healing.

Discharge Planning. Heading home is exciting, but also traumatic. With the help of our credentialed addiction specialists, 10 Acre Ranch clients spend a great deal of time planning for post-rehabilitation and adapting to life without substance use.
